Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: pulseaudio

On Jaunty Alpha, PulseAudio's Sound Preferences applet has the "Front"
speaker volume set to MUTE by default.

This is not desired behaviour as a large number of users depend on their
front speaker volume being unmuted in order to hear audio.  For such
users, the current default setting prevents audio from being heard,
leading users to believe that their sound system is broken.

See forum thread: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1036868

A workaround for this is to (Gnome):
1. Right-click on Sound Preferences applet icon (usually located on the 
far-right of the top panel).
2. Select Preferences.
3. In the pop-up window, select Front, and click Close.
4. Left-cick on Sound Preferences applet icon.
5. Set volume to other than mute.
